Mahogany and walnut
Secretary cabinet Model 2113 by Josef Frank, realised in the 1950s for Svenskt Tenn, is executed in warm mahogany with walnut accents. The drop‑front reveals a fitted interior which opens to reveal storage shelves, while beside it a column of six curved‑front drawers offers refined utility. The cabinet stands on short tapered feet, elevating the form while preserving a grounded sensibility.
Frank’s design language is present in the quietly elegant proportions and craftsmanship: the use of rich wood veneers, subtle detailing and careful arrangement of storage spaces reflect his commitment to combining functionality with quiet elegance.
